#6831: Wrong aspect Ratio on some videos with internal player

     Type:  defect                   |      Status:  new    
 Priority:  minor                    |   Milestone:  unknown
Component:  MythTV - Video Playback  |     Version:  head   
 Severity:  medium                   |     Mlocked:  0      
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
 Some video files that don't have a 16/9 aspect ratio, are shown stretched
 vertically (long faces...:).

 The mediainfo program in openSuSE reports that they have e.g.

 720x432 (2.407 aspect ratio)

 720x416 (2.450)

 720x432 (2.35)

 to name just three of them.

 Xine plays them with the correct ratio fullscreen.

 This happens on both a Debian and an openSuSE 11.1 frontends.
 I am including the output from mythfrontend --version on both systems as
 well as the mediainfo report on one of them. Anything else I should
 include?
